PUYAIN SANATI
ARTIST STATEMENT
Coming from a club music background, I don’t want to repeat the same process and tricks. I’ve moved on to more experimental realms. My process consists of breaking the conventional structures to be able to make something new. A kind of post-club music where I explore my relationship to acoustic sounds in collaboration with instrumentalists and ensembles via improvisation sessions where I record the sound material that works as a base for my compositional process. Then, I deconstruct the material in order to build a new landscape.
At the moment I’m exploring Persian traditional folk music through collaborating with Iranian musicians. I’m working with the sounds of instruments that are 3000 years old and processing it with today’s innovative software and trying to make sounds I haven’t heard before.
